| Deep Cleaning Records With Steam? Just bought a steam cleaner today! I have had my interest peaked in this issue! I had a Apollo Moon Lp from a friend's basement that was so bad with mold I would not even put it on the RCM. I mean mold from rim of record to label. So a perfect can... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil JohnK you think a modern Lascala sounds like a $2200 speaker??? Do you mean the Lascala is worth $2200 in a fixed up state or sounds like a new $2200 speaker? | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil JohnK that is why I am just putting in realitively cheap cap upgrade. I am unsure if I have rose colored glasses but I did LOVE those speakers? I am not a vintage guy. The case the vintage guys can claim with old Klipsch is the Alnico magnets. Aln... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Some people have told me you can not buy a speaker for less than around $10k and beat the Klipsch? After done will they sound like a 10k speaker or a $500 one that they do now? | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Picked up some crossover wire. Tested both speakers at 4.3ohms. Not sure if caps will have any effect on the resistance at least as far as a measureable number. I just wrote the numbers down. Quite excited to try this out. | |
| Are horns and hi-eff designs becoming more popular Mapman I have a friend who had a set of Khorns in a trailer and it is STILL the best system I have ever heard. His amp was 20k or so but still sounded great. I have had my Lascala's over the years in large and small rooms and say that is one good ... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil The caps that are going in are Sonic caps. They are supposed to be semi-highend on a affordable budget.Kind of excited. Wondering how much the old caps have gone bad? Bob Crites who is a good guy says he has tested hundreds of old caps and they we... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Linn speakers hooked back up. Voices are oh so smooth. Easy to focus on detail and you want too! Sounds beautiful. A Taste of Honey (Beatles)Still can't tell if Ringo hitting the cymbal with a brush. When he hits with a drum stick though the sound... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Caps coming and should be here later this week ot early next. Really curious how much difference to expect? Other speakers hooked back up and I take back about them being boring. Other speakers not boring they just do not shout at you like my Klip... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Had to take the gear back to the other speakers. I just could not stand the Klipsch any more. I have with help of others re-thought the crossover to just getting new inexpensive caps. If the Klipsch do not at least sound not defective they will be... | |
| Are horns and hi-eff designs becoming more popular Don't laugh at this Mapman but have you thought about Khorns? If you have corners they do not take up much floor space. I am looking at Khorns (get this) to SAVE space. To me they are majestic looking as well! Cost might be a problem with the Khor... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Addition to log. (likely the last with old crossover!)A taste of Honey by the Beatles. Drums on the left and I can't figure out for sure if Ringo is hitting the cymbals with a brush? Not sure what the sound is? Sound is dynamic and frustrating. Se... | |
| Are horns and hi-eff designs becoming more popular Mapman I see some of your other posts on Klipsh horns. I for one do not feel the other Klipsch are in the same league heritage. If you do go heritage go old. Mine are 1980 Lascala's and Grey can mids. Mine do not have the Alnico tweeter. They were... | |
| Are horns and hi-eff designs becoming more popular Shadorne I do agree with what you are saying to a point my Klipsch will NEVER get in the livingroom or I will be single! The Linn tower speakers are very attractive and look great just sitting there and yet I MISS the big horn sound. Yes they are ... | |
| Are horns and hi-eff designs becoming more popular I do have some friends who own retail stores and I can see why they do not want horns or any large speaker. Floor space cost of selling is huge. They said the Plasma, LCD is very much about less space in the store and the storage room. What you ar... |
